Let me remember.
When I switched a PC AT 286 from IPX to TCP/IP it was because the latter
gave access to remote servers and persons rather than just big disk on a
local LAN.  Sunsite.doc.ic.ac.uk was important because, among other
things, gave access to RFCs, which IPX LAN server wouldnt.

This would translate today into putting the RFCs and I-Ds on IPv6 only.
(datatracker, tools.ietf.org, etc)  Or the email lists, or the other
services.
